- Deepen understanding and enhance appreciation of the Philippines and Filipino culture
- Generate and nurture culturally-literate and participative communities of overseas Filipinos; and
- Foster mutual understanding and stimulate partnerships between Filipinos and non-Filipino residents of the host countries.
